Euler’s identity is one of the most elegant and profound equations in mathematics, often cited as an example of mathematical beauty. It’s given by:
\[ e^{iθ} = \cos(θ) + i\sin(θ) \]
Where:
- \( e \) is Euler's number (approximately 2.718),
- \( i \) is the imaginary unit,
- \( θ \) is an angle in radians.
Historical Background
Euler’s identity is derived from Euler’s formula, which combines exponential functions with trigonometry, bridging the fields of calculus and complex analysis.
Example Calculation
For \( θ = π \) radians:
\[ e^{iπ} + 1 = 0 \]
This famous special case, known as Euler's Identity, demonstrates how the five most important mathematical constants relate.
Usage
The calculator computes the real and imaginary parts of \( e^{iθ} \) for any angle \( θ \) in radians, helping users visualize complex numbers in polar form.
